- Food Intelligence (2011) A video from Bruno Verjus profiling Vasseur’s products & philosophy.
- Gilles Pudlowski (2011) “…il y aussi le pain au blé, celui au seigle ou aux châtaignes, issus de levain. Plus les jolies viennoiseries: pain au raisin, chausson aux pommes fraîches, palmier croustillant ou encore crumbles et – tartelettes aux fruits. Bref, une belle demeure avec son artisan hors norme…”
- Barbra Austin (2010) “Formed by hand and given a slow rise, these are loaves with character…”
- Croque-Camille (2010) “Yes, I’ve already written about Du Pain et des Idées, but that was before I became a regular…It is safe to say that I have by now sampled all their products…”
- Meg Zimbeck for Budget Travel (2009) “Vasseur’s wildly popular pain des amis (friendship bread) makes me want to move to the neighborhood. Light but chewy, with a nutty fragrance and deliciously charred bottom—it’s one of the best I’ve ever tried.”
- David Lebovitz (2008) “One of my absolute favorite bakeries in Paris…”

Thank you for the recommendation. We are enjoying a few breads right now!
I am so glad I found this place. The best bread and savoury pastries. One of the best pain au raisin Ihave ever eaten
This place is great – but with very limited opening times, and even when they are open, there always seems to be nothing left. There’s something almost unbearably snobbish too about a Boulangerie that wants to be a ‘local’ one but won’t open at weekends.
